Back at Nanhonglou, the official had already left, and a seal was posted on the door of the shop. She went in from the backyard, but saw that the shop was in a mess and the guys were sorting it out.

"Where was the thing found?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

The waiter pointed to the wooden lattice on the top floor where the cloth was placed and said: "We clean it every day, and every corner is not missed. Today, before the door is opened, the government officials came. After a search, they found a package of forbidden incense there."

Liu Yunxiang lowered his eyes and thought carefully. These guys were all brought by her from Da Rong. They were absolutely reliable, and they would clean them every day. They would not leave the shop without people during the day. If they wanted to do something, they could only do it at night.

"Did you hear anything last night?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

Behind the Nanhong Building is a courtyard with two entrances. She lives in the backyard, and there is a warehouse in the front yard and a side room for the guys.

One person thought of something and said: "When I was going to the toilet last night, I heard something moving in the warehouse, but when I went over to check, the warehouse door was locked well, so I didn't pay much attention."

Liu Yunxiang's heart tightened, "Oh no!"

She hurried to the warehouse with the guys. The lock was still intact. She gave the key to a guy, who stepped forward and opened the door, and a dozen mice ran out at once.

Everyone was so frightened that they stepped back one after another.

Liu Yunxiang slowed down for a moment and hurried into the warehouse, where he saw rags everywhere on the ground. She walked to a shelf and picked up a piece of silk. She saw that there were several holes in it.

Her hands shook and she hurriedly said: "Go and check the other silks!"

The guys realized the seriousness of the matter and hurried to check various shelves.

"My boss, we were bitten here too."

"Boss, it's the same here!"

"East..."

Liu Yunxiang looked up and saw a big hole in the roof.

She felt her head pounding. She came out of the warehouse and sat down beside the stone table in the courtyard. This is really a plan that fails to succeed. The other party wants to completely destroy Nanhonglou.

Suddenly, her pupils shrank and she thought of something, "Where is Zijin?"

She hurriedly called the aunt who came to cook in the backyard. The aunt said that she had not seen Zijin early in the morning, so she hurriedly asked her to find him. Soon, the aunt found Zijin behind the house.

Zijin was hit by a sword in the abdomen and passed out.

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly asked the waiter to go to Jingchuan Garden to invite Hongzhu over. After bandaging her wound, Zijin woke up not long after.

"Girl... I saw a man in black... on the roof of the warehouse... I chased after him... His kung fu is so good... I can't beat him..."

Liu Yunxiang touched Zijin's head and said, "Good girl, don't worry, the girl can handle it, just have a good rest."

After coming out of Zijin's room, Liu Yunxiang sat back at the stone table and looked at the cleared silks and satins, which were lined up in a row. Each piece had holes in it, so it must be unusable for making clothes.

"You guys remember, this matter must not be spread outside." Liu Yunxiang ordered.

A waiter came forward and said: "In the past few days, many distinguished customers have ordered clothes, and the deposits have been paid. What should I do?"

Liu Yunxiang exhaled. After Xue Yunjin reminded her that day, she asked shopkeeper Hu to deliver the goods quickly. At night, she felt really uneasy, so she called for shopkeeper Hu and asked him to move half of the silk satins elsewhere, so that it would be an emergency.

However, Nanhong Building was sealed and Shopkeeper Hu was still in jail. She had to find a way to solve these two problems first.

After explaining what the guys should do next, Liu Yunxiang went to Huashang Pavilion.

Huashang Pavilion is located in the most prosperous area of ​​​​Jin'an. The three-story red building, with cornices and brackets, carved beams and painted pillars, is decorated with colorful silks and satins. It is very luxurious.

There are cars and BMWs in front of the door, men and women in gorgeous clothes coming in and out, and maids and entourage surrounding them. It is obvious that all the dignitaries are here.

Liu Yunxiang walked inside, and a waiter came forward. He took a look at her dress first, then hurriedly put a smile on his face and led her inside: "This girl looks unfamiliar. Where does she live?"

Liu Yunxiang said calmly: "Xijiao Hutong."

It was a well-known place, and her clerk often went there to deliver goods, so she knew about it.

The clerk's mind suddenly changed, "I wonder which company it is?"

Liu Yunxiang saw that the shelves in the hall on the first floor were filled with silks and satins of different colors. Each one was full of brilliance, but they were also of the highest quality. She ignored the guy, walked around inside, then settled on a spot, pointed at the top piece of satin and said, "I want to see the one with dark indigo patterns."

The waiter smiled and said: "Girl, you have really good eyesight. This piece of cloth is called Zuiyanlan, but it is a treasure of our Huashang Pavilion, but at this price..."

"Easy to say." Liu Yunxiang said.

Upon hearing this, the waiter knew what was going on and hurriedly moved up the ladder to take down the piece of silk.

Liu Yunxiang first touched the piece of silk with his hands, and then held it up to the sun to shine. Seeing that the indigo dye was completely natural, he felt a little clearer.

Seeing Liu Yunxiang like this, the clerk stepped forward with a smile and said, "Girl, as long as the silk and satin sold by our Huashang Pavilion is guaranteed not to fade or lose silk, you can rest assured."

Liu Yunxiang put the silk satin on the counter, raised his head and said to the waiter: "I want to see your boss."

The clerk was stunned and said, "What are you dissatisfied with?"

Liu Yunxiang said with a solemn face: "I have something to ask your boss."

"The girl doesn't seem to be here to buy cloth. If not..."

Liu Yunxiang slapped his palm on the counter, "I have an important matter to discuss with your boss. If this matter is delayed, your job will not be saved!"

The clerk looked at Liu Yunxiang again and saw that he was wearing a beaded and jade ring, so he must have some background.

"Then wait a moment."

The guy asked the others to keep an eye on him, and then went to the second floor.

In the private room on the second floor, Mr. Pei Xiaohou looked at the azure Zhuanghua Yunjin under his hand and smiled: "Brother An, we have a small friendship. Is it appropriate for you to sell me 1000 taels a piece?"

Sitting opposite Mr. Pei Xiaohou is the second young master of Duke An Guo. He is wearing a purple robe, a gold collar around his neck, and a big ring on his hand. Although he is quite handsome, he can't hide his coquettish look. Dressed up in anger.

An Hong chuckled, "Since you call me second brother, second brother has to give face to his younger brother, right?"

Pei Rong's smile faded, "That's not the case."

An Hong came over with a very ungrateful smile: "Tonight in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, will you let me see your sincerity?"

Pei Rong lowered his eyes, "I'm just afraid that Brother An is drunk and what we are talking about is not serious business."

An Hong laughed, "Aren't you scared?"

"Why am I cowardly?"

"When we were studying in the Imperial College, my brothers took you to Flower Street, and you were so damn stuck in the bed with two girls that you started crying." As he said this, An Hong burst out laughing, laughing so hard.

Pei Rong's face turned livid, and his hands slowly clenched into fists. If he hadn't gritted his teeth and restrained himself, his fists would have passed.

After An Hong smiled, he turned the ring on his hand: "But if you look at the whole of Beijin, only I, Huashang Pavilion, have this kind of makeup and cloud brocade. It costs 1000 taels a piece. My brother has already given you enough face."

Pei Rong was silent for a moment, "What if I want a hundred horses?"

"Hey, big patron, I have to give you some more discounts."

"How many?"

An Hong fiddled with his abacus, "About 12 taels."
